Diversity
Diversity and development strategy are essential elements to achieving an organization's goals. Ultimately, cultural differences of informed views enables the achievement of mission objectives and allows for the emergence of effective solutions. If employees are not trained correctly on this topic, however, it could lead to negative outcomes for the business. . One notable example of the potential harms from a lack of diversity (and probably, a lack of training) comes from the 2016 Oscars ceremony, where the topic of discussion centered on the lack of diversity within the nominees. . As many actors expressed their disappointment, one suggested that the lack of recognition needs to start in the 'boardroom.' It is crucial for members of any board or other governing body to receive proper training if they are going to make big decisions that affect many individuals. Without it, the organization may have poor outcomes, or suffer reputational harm.

Types of Development Training for Diversity

 * Awareness Training- This is designed to uplift the employees and make them aware of others' differences so that it enhances the employees' ability to problem solving.
 * Skill-based Training- This allows immediate learning so that employees can apply it to situations.
